What Are You Doing In Real Life II - Page 252

Got really lucky today! I'd gone to the pharmacy to straighten out a lapsed prescription and had to sit and wait at Walgreens. Medicine in hand, I then headed to the supermarket for the evening edibles; and then home. Upon arriving home, after 2 hours, I noticed my wallet missing!

Briefly checking the driver seat area to no effect, I drove back swiftly to the pharmacy where I'd sat waiting for the prescription refill, assuming it had slid out of my athletic shorts pocket. As I pulled into the lot, a lady driving an outgoing pickup truck shouted out my full name...I halted and backed up. She handed me the wallet! She had looked at my driver's license with foto and was enroute to my residence and had recognized me! She showed me the map on her cell phone. The pharmacy department was closing when she'd spotted the billfold on the floor under the chair and so resolved to take care of the matter personally. I carry the cash separate on a clip; but would have been greatly inconvenienced over losing ATM & credit cards, driver's license , passport card, my pistol CCW and any number of Medicare and insurance cards.

I've returned quit a few a few wallets and cellphones myself in my time...so perhaps the god of good deeds figured I was owed one.

Real good Karma story

However, you should never again carry your wallet around in bulging "athletic shorts" pockets - no wonder it slid out

It's the only thing sliding out these daze!

I'll post anything to keep up my hard won Cheeky Sod soubriquet she so graciously bestowed on me!

Everything looks green around here now that Moira's put up her special Halloween lights early

speaking of whom

I love that she does all these crafty things like needlework and card-making, but last night I watched her digging the butt-end of her cheroot out of its holder with a crochet hook - this is true and not made up to get a laugh

Um, you realize I was talking about Ack-tongue, right?

If he's the LA Dodgers of Whack-a-Squirrel, I'm the bleaping NY Yankees.

I don't care how old and feeble he is in real life, he's going down hard.

Air Fryer's have come a long way. A number of them will air fry, bake, dehydrate and also rotisserie your various foods. We got a power air fryer oven XL with 3 racks. We really haven't tried to cook anything in it except to air fry chicken, fish and chips ( fries ). The oven has many settings and works well. They can be had for $ 100 dollars. We haven't fry-ed anything in the last 2 years or more. Air fryers are fast, efficient and cook food in a much healthier way although I still miss a good deep fried fish sandwich.

Others from Emeril Legasse are in the $ 300 dollar range. We found the Power fryer XL to do everything we want it to do.

There are things which should never be replaced, like molten lard.

Still, this looks interesting.

Thus far this one (9.5 litre capacity) looks like the favourite.
